Xbox Live Arcade 2012 Game Sales Seen Through Leaderboards!

First party publishers and the like have always been secretive about their game sales. Unless they’re some finite number filled with zeros about the amount shipped, it’s not something for the public.

Here’s a taste of the super detailed look at every exclusive, indie, and publisher specific run down and below are 10 highest and notable lows Langley marked in the full list HERE.
